Profpatsch	a2c708c256	maintainers/scripts: improve github handle checker ... Now also finds name-clashes for github handles who never contributed to nixpkgs before. Also deals with too many request errors.	2018-03-04 03:26:44 +01:00
Profpatsch	aa47bac04f	Convert maintainer file entries to attributes, add github handles ... Based on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/34842, the nix-instantiate output was pretty-printed and the validity of the github handles manually verified, by automatically checking whether the user handles exist on github (https://github.com/userhandle, status 200 or 404). Each handle under 5 characters was manually checked (because the collision probability with non-maintainer accounts is high), each missing entry was manually researched. The script used is kept in `maintainers/scripts` as an example of how to work with the mainainers list through nix’ JSON interface.	2018-03-04 03:26:44 +01:00
